User reviews
OneSub is great, and its extension is even better! You just read an article in your customary news, and you get a button that takes you to a selection of coverage of the same story by other outlets. International and enlightening. Another button lets you create or add to threads, if that's your thing.

An excellent app and a refreshing change from the predictable narratives repeating on a seemingly endless loop from the big networks.

Fantastic idea. Well executed. An incredibly useful tool for clear thinking.
